The compounds [I] of this invention are ester derivatives and/or S-acyl or S-alkyl derivatives of mercaptoacylamino acids, the known effective angiotensin I-converting enzyme inhibitors, and they release mercaptoacylamino acids which are proved efficacious at the part to be shown the activity by enzymatic and/or chemical hydrolysis when administered to men or animals. Mercaptoacylamino acid is easy to be subjected to the reactions such as oxidation, etc. during the manufacture thereof or with time lapse in the living body because it contains sulfhydryl group in its molecule, and therefore possesses the problems, that is, the decrease in activity and shorter effective hours. On the other hand, the protection of sulfhydryl group by acyl particularly benzoyl can make the activity long lasting ans simultaneously the lipophilic property increase, and therefore the absorption potency can be improved. But, in the known S-benzoyl derivatives, the effective time cannot be prolonged to a desirable extent because they are immediately deacylated by hydrolysis or metabolism in the living body after absorbed. So, in this invention, to achieve the aim at lasting the effect as long as possible, various substituents are introduced to benzoyl group as acyl group protecting the sulfhydryl group in mercaptoacylamino acid. As the result, it has been proved that the compounds of this invention can make the effective time longer than S-benzoyl derivatives. Furthermore, esterification of carboxylic acid can also increase the lipophilic property of mercaptoacylamino acid, and therefore the absorption potency can be further improved and the activity can be further prolonged. In addition, thioester of mercaptoacylamino acid and various diuretic such as ethacrynic acid and furosemide, etc. is also efficacious. Besides, as the unstable sulfhydryl group is protected by acyl or alkyl group, the compounds of this invention have the property that the activity is hard to decrease particularly by oxidation, etc., and the medicinal preparation is more stable than the antihypertensive compositions containing the known mercaptoacylamino acids as main ingredient so that it may not show the lowering of activity, or the generation of offensive odor, etc. through decomposition during the manufacture thereof or with time lapse.

This reaction solution is washed with ethyl acetate, acidified with conc. hydrochloric acid, and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer is washed with saturated sodium chloride solution, dried over magnesium sulfate, and concentrated in vacuo to give oil, yield 3.6 g. The oil is purified by silica gel column chromatography to give the titled compound, yield 2.7 g (57%), mp. 93°-96° C. (benzene). [α]D 24 +80.4° (c=1.0, methanol).

Table IX shows the results of the pharmacological tests when the represented compounds of the compounds [I] of this invention and the related salts are used as antihypertensive agents. Table IX clearly shows that the compounds of this invention have the long-lasting, useful antihypertensive effect, and stability is also excellent.
PHARMACOLOGICAL TEST
As recently it has been clear that the compounds inhibiting angiotensin I-converting enzyme may be the curative potency against both renal hypertension and essential hypertension, the compounds of this invention are evaluated as antihypertensive agents by the following method.
(Method)
Male Wistar strain rats weighing 200-300 g were used. Under ether anesthesia, polyethylene cannulae are inserted into carotid artery and jugular vein. The cannula to carotid artery is connected to an electric transducer, while the cannula to jugular vein is connected to an apparatus for continuous infusion. After the complete recovery from anesthesia, angiotensin I is infused intravenously in a dose of 300 ng/kg by the apparatus for continuous infusion, and the pressor response is recorded by polygraph (Nihon Koden, RM-150). The compounds of this invention suspended in 0.5% tragacanth solution are administered orally in a dose of 0.3 ml per 100 g of body weight, and the pressor response to angiotensin I infused intravenously is measured with time. The inhibitory activity of the compounds against angiotensin I-converting enzyme is expressed as the percent inhibition of pressor response to angiotensin I. Table IX shows the changes of percent inhibition of the compounds of this invention with time.
(Results)
The compounds of this invention as well as the known antihypertensive mercaptoacylamino acids suppress the pressor response to angiotensin I by administered orally to unanesthesized rats, the mechanism of which is derived from inhibiting angiotensin I-converting enzyme. The compounds of this invention are derivatives of mercaptoacylamino acid, and with the comparative result in the suppressive effect of pressor response to angiotensin I by administering these equimolar compounds orally it has been proved that the compounds of this invention are well absorbed from the gastroenteric wall, and hydrolyzed gradually at the part to be shown the activity so that they have the advantages as antihypertensive agent such as durability.
STABILITY TEST
The stability of mercaptoacylamino acids is compared with that of ester derivatives or S-acyl and S-alkyl derivatives in the ethanol or the phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.0).
Condition for preservation: at room temperature, for 1 month.
Result: Ester derivatives and S-acyl and S-alkyl derivatives are more stable than mercaptoacylamino acids.
TOXICITY TEST
The value of acute toxicity of (4R)-2-(2-acetoxyphenyl)-3-(S-acetyl-3-mercaptopropanoyl)-4-thiazolidinecarboxylic acid (Compound 32) is LD>500 mg/kg.
(Experimental animals)
The male ddy-std. strain mice (4 weeks of age, weighing 19-21 g) were placed in a breeding room of constant temperature and humidity (23±1° C., 55±5%) and fed freely pellet diet (CE-2, Clea Japan, Inc.) and water ad. libitum for a week. The mice showing the normal growth were selected for the experiment.
(Method of administration)
Test compound is suspended in 0.5% tragacanth solution, and administered intraperitoneally in a dose of 0.5 ml per 20 g B.W.

It is found from the above pharmacological tests that the compounds [I] to [V] of this invention are useful as antihypertensive agents having the lasting property. The compounds can be given with the combination of diuretics such as hydroflumethiazide, furosemide, and bumetanide same as other antihypertensive agents. The compounds can be administered either orally or parenterally. The dosage forms are tablet, capsule, granule, powder, suppository, injection, etc. In the treatment of hypertension, these preparations can contain not only general excipients but also other antihypertensive agents such as reserpine, α-methyldopa, guanethidine, clonidine, hydralazine, etc. The dose is adjusted depending on symptom, dosage form, etc. But, usual daily dosage is 1 to 5000 mg, preferably 10 to 1000 mg, in one or a few divided doses.
